    Overview

    CloudForecast's Enterprise plan is ideal for mid-size to large organizations spending more than $125k/month on AWS. Our features and reports help solve the following cost-related problems:

    • Daily AWS Cost Monitoring - Your daily report summarizes the overall cost and alerts you of any cost anomalies.
    • AWS Cost Overspends and Anamoly Detection: Understand the exact reasons for cost increases in less than 30 seconds.
    • AWS Tagging Compliance: Discover untagged AWS resources and ensure tagging compliance.
    • Monthly AWS Financial Report for Financial Stakeholders: Send a monthly cost report especially designed for finance & management teams.
    • Slack and Microsoft Team Integration: Deliver our Daily Cost Reports directly to your engineering team via Teams & Slack.
    • ZeroWaste Healthcheck Report: Identify idle and underutilized resources for cost-saving opportunities.

    Get Impactful Insights in Your Inbox: AWS Cost Explorer is too complicated, boring, and untargeted for most technical teams. DevOps managers. CloudForecast's focused reports highlight the most important areas in which to address your AWS costs and usage so you can get back to your core technical responsibilities.

    View & Manage AWS Costs by Team - AWS non-segmented data in Cost Explorer is hard to parse and nearly impossible to break down to share with cross-functional teams. With CloudForecast, you can filter your AWS cost by sub-accounts and/or TagKeys. That means each engineering team can handle its own AWS budgets and spending.

    Understand & Prevent AWS Cost Overruns - AWS Cost Explorer doesn't eliminate the investigative work needed to report overspend. You're still going to waste a lot of time digging. Not with CloudForecast. We show you exactly where your significant cost increases are, and where to take action. Now you can prevent costly AWS bills and build root cause analysis to avoid overspend from happening again.
